About the Summary

We live in a world of nonstop noise and action. Our goals are to make it through the day and to try not to drop too many balls in the meantime. This state of being constantly stuck in the moment with very little insight to the future is a problem that Dr. Benjamin Hardy takes up in his book, Be Your Future Self Now. Hardy’s main premise is that in order to optimize our time and efforts to maximum benefit, we must stop working for and looking at who we are now and instead focus on who we want to be in the future. He believes that we should believe we are already our future, ideal selves, and this will help us get to that state.
